Pm sc2150. Tell him it's for a v6, and he can color match your paint.

Again PM SC2150. I bought mine from him. He is a pleasure to deal with and tries to please his customers. I had a minor issue with my cans paint. I sent it back. I had it on my doorstep back in under 48hrs along with a refund on shipping charges. A+ Vendor

I would guess they are hand made due to not being a high demand product. Takes time to hand craft and paint and both time and materials are not cheap these days. I can fully understand the price of this.

For the average joe.. its not a problem. 99.9% of cars don't have a oil catch system and they do just fine. In the last 5 years engine makers have gotten pretty good at making engines. These days a car will die for reasons other then the motor. 150k miles is no problem for a modern engine. I think people are making a huge issue out of this. You will not gain 20hp from a catch can! LOL.. But it will save you the hassle of cleaning out your manifold and probably keep your motor purrrring more efficiently after 75k miles or so. For those of us who love our cars and want to prevent that little bit of oil ingestion can Catch Can away!

GM Doesn't view this as a problem, in their view it means you need to service the throttle body every xx miles to keep everything running right. To most owners the fact that performance degrades SLIGHTLY between these cleanings is not an issue. A catch can will not likely improve performance of a properly running engine but it will maintain performance as you put miles on.
